I think by the end of 2018 bitcoin will cost much more than $ 50,000. Most likely about 80,000. Last year bitcoin cost $ 950 and everyone gave cautious predictions that it would cost $ 2,000 or $ 3,000. Absolutely no one could predict that bitcoin will grow to $ 20,000.

Technical Analysis aside, no one actually knows whether or not the Bitcoin will reach $50000. As they say the perception becomes reality, this appears to be so true in the crypto world. The more people will perceive the price will be going up (and so they grab more Bitcoin), the more chances are that price rise becomes real!!

Its all just a speculation, It doesn't happen yet, Many of us yearning bitcoin will reach that far by the end of this year perhaps, but hopefully there's a miracle happens:) It seems bitcoins finds hard to stabilized its value about 50k, if we just analyze the graphical path at coin market cap. The value does not grow straight forward,..Maybe it tooks much time to reach that level.

Based on the news, bitcoin might hit $50000 by the end of 2018. Is this possible? If so, what are the reasons?

if we look at the weekly bitcoin chart we can assume that when we exit the bearish trend it can shoot to 50k. But so far the situation is complicated and we can not say anything for sure. In my opinion the chances are now 50/50, or 5.5-3.5k or 11-17-50k. Let us hope for the best. Cheers

where's news you got? It's very to touch $50000,but nothing is impossible here let's see later

All these news are mere speculations. There's no way anyone can predict precisely if btc can go that high. Though if you look at it historically, it would show that btc is bound to be big this year. The thing is, btc doesn't always abide by historical TAs

I think this is unlikely, you will find it easy to reach $ 20,000 in 2017 but down 50% -60% in the first two months of 2018. To achieve that number of dreams is difficult. Towards Bitcoin, I do not think I should, but so much hope for it. We should learn about Altcoin as it has more potential for future growth than Bitcoin.

well, we do not know what the bitcoin price will be at the end of this year. but I think it still has potential. even I feel that altcoin growth will affect bitcoin prices. so I guess bitcoin will indeed cost $ 50000, but we do not know when it will happen.

As I see, someone already metioned, that news will tell you everything to make you buy more bitcoins and make you hold. Yeah, here of course low chance that bitcoin's price will hit 50000, but from everything what I see now, I think bitcoin won't hit 50,000 in future. Right now as most of people, I see potential in altcoins, and prefer to invest in alts, than bitcoin.

I think no, it will not reach $50,000 this 2018 that's too much, the fee will increase if that happen people will not buying bitcoin anymore and it will not recommend for payment options.

No one is able to predict bitcoin price, but everyone who has investments in bitcoin is not haram to conceive the bitcoin price. And about the problem of bitcoin transaction fee, I have read some news or thread in this forum, which will be in the launch of lighting network that will solve the problem of fee per transaction to lower fee and slow transaction processing problem becomes very fast considering at this time bitcoin only able to process 7 transactions per second.

I believe $50,000 by the end of 2018 is really reasonable, we might see some huge pull backs and huge run ups, however, $50,000 doesn't increase the market cap that much, so if the technology gets adopted, lightning network becomes successful, I speculate that it definitely will touch that mark.

Well for me, i also believe that bitcoin's price will reach $50000. Before entering in this business you should always remember that it is volatile. We do not know when it will rise and when it will fall. Today's price is at $9k to $10k, its really normal that in this business will be experiencing like this having ups and down it is because of the demand and supply. So if we want to have the bitcoins price up we should always keep on trading and invite more people to invest on bitcoin for us to gain more profit and all of us will experience the sucess of bitcoin.

I have same sort of thinking in this regard. Bitcoin bears a bright future and one day it will touch this target of 50k dollars. However, nobody can actually predict that day. But if you ask me, bitcoin will be doing this by the end of 2018.

I may sound insane or over optimist but the fact is bitcoin makes real progress in the second half or last days of a year. This has been its behavior for last year and things won’t be different this time either.

Well, we're all cryptoexpets here, but the $ 50,000 seems too big. But I don't exclude that another currency can rise in price to the specified mark.

Yeah, it is a little big voucher. This seems such boost amount that can’t be achieved this year. Although there may be some chances for it but not sure. And as per the history and events that have manipulated the prices of bitcoins, if we calculate according to them, there is a prediction of about $35000 this year. Prices may vary throughout the year but ending will be monumental.
